Building My Life Chapter 1669 Solving Problems with Josias
Tuesday. Maggie is instructing the nanny on how to take care of Henrique.“Any more questions, Cleide?”“No, ma'am.” Cleide nods with a helpful smile.“Great, here's my phone in case you need it. I'll be back at lunchtime for you to eat and rest.”Maggie hands Henrique over to her. Henrique is already big and walking, but the ladies insist on picking him up.“Whoa! How heavy he is!” Cleide jokes.“Time passes. I'm getting old.” Maggie responds between giggles.“Imagine how I am!” Bernardo approaches, “I hope to be able to witness the graduation of my heir.”“You will surely witness this.” Cleide says, “And the college will be journalism.”“Better journalism than traveling sales,” Bernardo grumbles.Maggie is embarrassed by the comment, “Ehr... That's all, Cleide, thank you.”Cleide leaves with Henrique after Maggie kisses her son on the cheek.“No need to spoil the mood by commenting on the street vendor.”“Do you want us to have a meeting condemning her presence?” Bernardo worries.M
Building My Life Chapter 1670 The Natural Order of Commerce
At the entrance of Marçal Publishing, Bernardo and Maggie find Shirley again selling her butter cookies to the company's employees. Even the security guards at the entrance who were supposed to expel her surrendered to the taste of the delicacy.“Thank you very much, young man.” Shirley greets them mockingly, “Oh, good morning? Do you want a bag of shortbread cookies?”“Which of these does not contain potassium chloride?” Maggie asks bitterly.Shirley just laughs, “This daughter of mine was always good-natured.”Bernardo is short and direct, “The point is this, my mother-in-law: Josias Rocha has determined that you must sell this crap at the entrance of the Vargas Building. It seems that the people at Rocha Constructions miss this delicacy.” The word 'delicacy' came out with irony.Shirley breaks the wry smile, “They miss my cookies, but not me?”“You got the message.” Maggie warns her, “If you refuse to sell to more customers and expand your sales, then that means you're only here ou
Building My Life Chapter 1671 Caio Wants to Help
Harold and Wallace are furious at the prospect of Vera showing up at their house at any moment.“This is absurd! We need to call the police!” Wallace states shaking with rage.“But on what charge would we order her arrest?” Harold scratches his chin, “Should I use the revolver?”“Mr. Freire,” Beto's voice trembles, “I want to take this opportunity and ask you not to go to that extreme. Please, don't kill my sister.”“Mr. Reis..."“You can call me Beto, or Roberto.”“My young Roberto, your sister has done a tremendous amount of harm in our lives, and apparently, she won’t stop until she sees me dead.”Wallace hugs his father tightly, “You're not going to die, Dad. I forbid you!”“But how will my heart take so much stress?” Harold questions him, “I won't put up it, just like Teodoro couldn't bear it.”Beto lumps in his throat, “Mr. Freire, if Vera shows up here, you can call the police and accuse her of disturbing the peace in the neighborhood. But please, hide the gun from Mrs. Freire.
Building My Life Chapter 1672 Accusation Denied
Diane took the liberty of turning the living room radio back on. As Metallica's song "Hero of the Day" sets in the living room, she's calling Maggie.On the other side, in her office, Maggie answers the call, “Hello?”“Maggie, this is Diane, your future sister-in-law.”Maggie smiles, “I already consider you part of the family. What is it, Diane?”“Are you aware that Melissa is pregnant?”“Yes, my brothers informed me yesterday.”“It seems that Will Campos is not joyful with the good news. He said Kelvin raped Melissa just like in the 19th century and now she is pregnant against her will.”Maggie rages and punches the desk, “What an imbecile! I don't know how Melissa still puts up with this irresponsible person! And to think he was a famous soccer player ten years ago...”“He failed as a soccer player and he failed as a member of the Executive Board of Rocha Constructions...” Diane still has questions in her mind.Maggie notices this, “Diane, do you still have any questions?”“Don't be
Building My Life Chapter 1673 Kind of Unexpected Visit
Wednesday. William and Caio are getting ready, the father going to work, and the son going to school.“Today will be my last day at the warehouse, son.” William excitedly announces, “I’ll resign to start building our store.”“Have you decided whether to be an ice cream parlor or a pizzeria?” Caio asks as he puts on his sneakers.“Which do you prefer?” William turns on the radio and Andrea Bocelli's song “Vivo Per Lei” fills the living room.“How chic we are with Italian music.” Caio jokes, “I prefer pizzeria.”“We would have to hire a pizza maker. And the store will always be open at night.” William warns him.“Great, so I can help you,” Caio assures him with a smile.Someone knocks on the door. Caio smiles in anticipation.“Who will be?” William opens the door and immediately wants to close it in Josias's face, “NO! GET OUT!”Josias holds the doorjamb masterfully, “Don't insult me, William!”“GET OUTTA HERE, DAMN IT, NO ONE CALLED YOU!”Caio gets up, “Actually, father, I was the one
Building My Life Chapter 1674 We Have Job Openings
William turns off the radio angrily and doesn't know whether to beat Caio for calling out to his enemy.“Caio, why and what did you call Josias, eh? By what authority, who allowed you to step over me, challenge me in such an outrageous way—”Josias cuts the melodrama, “Stop it, what an endless sentence! Will, Caio wants the best for you.”“GET OUT, you're in my house! I don’t step foot in that damn mansion.”Josias, like any businessman, doesn't want to waste time, “William, Caio came to me wanting your business to be built by Rocha Constructions. I feel kind of offended that YOU didn’t come to me.”William's eyes are bloodshot, “You mean I'm obligated to hire you, you worm?”“In a way, yes. Like it or not, I was married to your sister and you have two nephews. Caio is also my nephew, we are all from the same family!”“Cut that talk!”“And I won't even go into details about the fact that Rocha Constructions is the best civil construction company. In three months your pizzeria or ice c
Building My Life Chapter 1675 Wrongdoings at the Rocha Hotel
Caio is flattered when Josias says he deserves to work at Rocha Constructions.“Thank you, Uncle Josias, but I prefer to work with my father.”“Well done, you idiot!” William cheers, thinking that Caio has offended Josias.But neither Caio meant to offend, nor did Josias feel offended.Josias declares, “I'll send you the quote, William. And don't even think about turning it down.”“OF COURSE I’LL REFUSE!”Josias breaks his smile, “If you refuse, I will take steps to ruin your business. Don't you want to leave a legacy for Caio? The Bento brothers remain loyal to me.”“DAMN YOU!” William screams at the top of his lungs.“That's what I thought. Bye, Caio, keep studying to be someone in life.”Josias withdraws, ever mighty and sovereign. William punches the bookcase, nearly knocking the radio over.“Dad, calm down! What can Tiago Bento do wrong?”William doesn't respond. He just imagines Tiago and Igor setting fire to the pizzeria with him and the customers still inside, screaming and ch
Building My Life Chapter 1676 Melissa and Daryl Set Boundaries
William is saying goodbye to Beto in his office at the Ramos supermarket. Beto's portable radio is playing "Walking Contradiction" by Green Day.“Yes, it's a huge contradiction.” William whimpers as usual, “I'll have my pizzeria built by my worst enemy.”Beto purses his lips, then opines, “Will, does the situation between you and Josias have to be that traumatic? There was a time when you were friends.”“Yes, when he was married to my sister and respected her.” William grumbles, “From the moment the marriage ended because of him, I hated him again. And since Caio doesn't stand a chance at Rocha Constructions, I'll leave the pizzeria to him when I die.”“Stop talking about death ‘cause you're far from going through it.” Beto laughs.“Only forty more years, who knows.” William calms down, “Okay, Beto, it was a pleasure working here, but I have to leave.”“I'm also saying goodbye.” Beto looks around, “Now more than ever I need to keep an eye on my father's building.”“Did something unfor

Chapter 3248 Go Date the Spanish Stallion
At the quiet, tree-lined Ibrahim Square, Sarah sat alone on a bench, her gaze resting on an issue of the Maggiezine. She flipped through the pages, but her mind was elsewhere — clearly disconnected from whatever her eyes were scanning.Lost in thought, she barely noticed Reynaldo approaching until his voice startled her back to the present.“Sarah, thank goodness you’re safe, sound... and still a virgin!”She nearly jumped off the bench, utterly horrified by his sudden arrival — and even more so by his tactless choice of words.“What is going on with this town?” she snapped. “Is there something in the water?”“I drink charcoal-filtered water,” Reynaldo replied matter-of-factly, as if that settled the issue.“Well, good for you.” Sarah crossed her arms. “Reynaldo, can you explain to me if you have something against J.J.?”He sat down beside her, his demeanor defensive yet trying to remain calm.“I have nothing against him,” he insisted. “I met J.J. recently — when he came back ‘from th
Chapter 3247 Understanding What's Going On
At the Vasconcelos Fabrics headquarters, J.J. remained seated at his desk, a faintly amused smirk displaying on his lips. Across from him stood Dylan, still in his police uniform, exuding the solemn demeanor of a man trying to sort through a delicate situation.“You’ve been reported for assault, J.J.,” Dylan announced, his tone neutral but firm.J.J. didn’t flinch. “So the wuss decided to file a complaint instead of retaliating like a real man,” he replied coolly, barely looking up from his desk.Dylan’s brow furrowed. “As an officer of the law, I’m not in the business of revenge or retaliation.” His mouth curved slightly, but there was no warmth in the smile. “But I do try to understand what’s going on. According to Reynaldo, you snapped when you saw him near Sarah Paes.”At that, J.J. finally lifted his gaze, his demeanor shifting from flippant to serious. “Since you’re following in your father’s footsteps, I assume you know who Sarah is.” He paused for effect, then added gravely, “
Chapter 3246 Courted by Every Man in Lagoon City
Brigitte and Theodore were chatting animatedly in the bustling corridors of Damascene Lawyers, sidestepping lawyers and clients moving briskly through the hall.“How are your studies going, Theodore?” Brigitte asked with a warm smile.“Excellent,” he replied. “Every now and then my dad hands me a case to look over.”“Must be nice, being the boss’s son,” she teased.Theodore chuckled heartily, clearly enjoying the perks of nepotism. But as they approached Brigitte’s office, their conversation came to an abrupt halt.“I’ve been waiting for you, you little fox!” came a sharp voice from down the hall.Brigitte froze, startled by the sight of Suzy standing at her office door, arms crossed and a glare cold enough to freeze hell over.******In the elegant living room of the Mountain Penthouse, Diane sat beside Felipe on the plush sofa, her demeanor gentle and maternal, despite the fact her son was a grown man. She looked at him with quiet concern.“Are you really sure about ending the relat
Chapter 3245 The Kiss of the One We Love
That afternoon, the living room of the Mountain Penthouse was tense and electric. Diane stepped in, only to find her son Felipe in the middle of a heated argument with Jake Cogo. Her expression immediately twisted into one of displeasure.“Hey, what’s going on here?” she asked sharply. “Mr. Cogo, my son needs to rest.”Jake didn’t flinch. “I can see that, Mrs. Mountain. But this is urgent.”Placing her purse on the sideboard, Diane raised an eyebrow. “And what’s so important that it needs to be discussed right now?”Jake turned to her. “Felipe says he wants to break up with my sister. I have to be involved in this.”A sly, almost mischievous smile tugged at Diane’s lips. “And where is Suzy, by the way?”Jake flinched, suddenly sheepish. “Er... she went to look for investors at—”“I don’t give a damn!” Diane exploded. “Mr. Cogo—”“Jake,” he corrected quickly.“‘Jake,’ I’m deeply disappointed in the way Suzy handled this whole situation. I was supporting her as my future daughter-in-law
Chapter 3244 Taken by the CEO’s Son
In the elegant living room of the Mountain Penthouse, Mary gently rocked baby Anthony in her arms. The soft rhythm of her lullaby filled the space — until the sound of the doorbell cut through the quiet.“That’s odd,” Mary murmured, her brow furrowing. “No one called from the front desk...” She approached the door cautiously and asked, “Who is it?”A voice responded from the other side. “Jake Cogo!”Mary raised an eyebrow, surprised. “Hold on a second!”Just then, Felipe emerged slowly, dressed in a white robe, walking with measured steps — the toll of his recent hospital stay still evident in his posture.“Who is it, Mary?” he asked.“Jake Cogo,” she answered, puzzled. “Cousin, weren’t you dating his sister?”Felipe grimaced, visibly annoyed by the mention.“Mary, I’m not dating Jake,” he clarified. “You better take our little cousin to his crib.”Mary gave a small smile. “Oh, Anthony’s already asleep. My lullaby must’ve been either very soothing or incredibly boring.”Felipe chuckle
Chapter 3243 Nobody’s Calling the Cops
At Café Montanha, Rodrigo returned from the supermarket and took a long, satisfied look around his bustling business. Customers chatted over coffee and snacks, while Neilton and the other waiters moved about swiftly and professionally, serving with ease.“Hey, Rod! What’s up?” Neilton called out with a grin.Rodrigo replied, “Neil, sometimes I envy you for not having a mountain of problems.”Laughing, Neilton shot back, “And I envy you for having a big, noisy family.”Rodrigo paused, swallowing hard. “I’m sorry.”“Nah, I’m just joking — well, maybe not. I do wish I had at least a younger brother.”Rodrigo chuckled lightly. “Whenever I need to, I talk to Veronica over video call. Anyway, I meant the problems at the supermarket.”They made their way to the counter.“Still that issue with the truck from Bezerra Farm?” Neilton asked.“That’s resolved. But now we know why it happened.” Rodrigo lowered his voice, glancing around. “Be careful with the Borges brothers. They’re not who we thou
Chapter 3242 Not Such a Cordial Neighbor
At the Vaztrans office, Suzy walked in expecting to find Sofia at her desk. Instead, she was surprised to see Alan there alone.She had no idea she was about to be handled like livestock on its way to the slaughterhouse.“Alan, what a surprise. What are you doing here? Where’s Sofia?” she asked.Alan leaned back with a hint of irony in his tone. “Which of those two questions should I answer?”Suzy paused, confused by the odd remark.“We need to talk, Suzy,” he continued, pushing a check across the desk.Suzy’s breath caught as she picked it up and read the staggering amount.“This check...?” she whispered.“It’s the amount you invested in Vaztrans, plus ten percent in compensation, as outlined in your contract,” Alan explained coolly.“You’re... returning my investment?” she asked, her voice tight.“Exactly. We no longer require your partnership, Miss Cogo.”Suzy’s eyes narrowed. “May I ask what this is about?”“It’s simple,” Alan said, calm but firm. “My wife believes you’re not cont
Chapter 3241 The Mountain Family Has Lost Its Relevance
In the Vaztrans offices, William extended a freshly written check to Sofia. Standing nearby, Alan wore a solemn expression, watching the transaction with quiet attention.“Here you go, my dear partner,” William said with finality. “This is our salvation.”Sofia took the check and her eyes widened with disbelief. “The bank’s never going to cash this much for Suzy,” she muttered.William shrugged indifferently. “Then they’ll figure out another way to get the money back to her.”Alan leaned forward, trying to get a better look at the amount. “My dad’s being pretty generous, huh?”“Thank God,” Sofia said. A relieved smile crept onto her face. “Any doubts I had about being accepted into this family are gone.” She brightened, holding the check delicately. “I’m even going to text Caroline. What do you think, honey?”Alan chuckled and leaned over, placing a gentle kiss on the crown of her head. “She’ll love that.”Still serious, William interjected, “So, who’s going to break the news?”Alan’s
Chapter 3240 You Keep the Cycle of Hate Spinning
At the Lafayette Mansion, in the elegantly furnished living room, Thierry was seething with fury. The revelation that criminals had used his supermarket as a stage for their schemes infuriated him.“How dare those idiots?” he barked. “And what about Leonardo? Isn’t he the top lawyer at Damascene Lawyers?”J.J. answered with a grim tone. “Apparently being a lawyer for the most prestigious firm in Lagoon City has become some sort of cover for him.”Rodrigo, firm and resolute, added, “Well, then we’ll have to tear that cover off. Brigitte and Little Theo can’t have their reputations stained.”“And let’s not forget,” J.J. continued, “my father is a client of that firm. He knows Miguel Damascene personally — he’s the current owner.”Thierry clenched his jaw. “And there’s more. My wife is Little Theo’s sister—”
